主持人赵宁：KRIS，作为队长要承担很多责任，还要照顾其他的队友，那在担任队长过程中有没有遇到什么困难，对你来说是挑战的？
Host: Kris, being the leader comes with many responsibilities, you have to take care of other members, did you encounter any problems while being the leader, anything that challenged you?
KRIS：因为我们队其实结构比较特别一点，韩国成员和中国成员混在一起，混搭型的队伍，语言一开始有磨合的阶段，但是其实时间长了之后，因为我们现在关系都很好，而且我也是大家都是兄弟一样，其实我就是尽我自己的责任而已，因为公司给我这个职位尽好责任带好这个队，希望大家都更好，都还好。
Kris: our group has a unique structure, with Korean and Chinese members intermingled together, language barriers in the beginning stages were rough, but after living together for awhile, we all have very good relationships with each other. I’m like everyone else, we are all brothers to each other. Honestly I just try to be as responsible as possible, because the company gave me this position to lead the group. I hope for everybody to succeed.
主持人赵宁：为了让大家更多的了解EXO-M，我做一个小游戏，我提问他们来指，我们指就可以了。比如说是KRIS，是这个题目的答案，我们就指向他，好不好。第一个问题，谁最卖萌？
Host: to let our audience know more about EXO-M. Let’s play a little game. I’ll ask, you guys point. For example, if you think the answer is Kris, just point to him, okay? First question, who is most child-like?
LU HAN。
(everybody points to Luhan)
理由呢？
why?
LU HAN你是怎么卖萌的？
Luhan how do you act like a child
歌迷：天然萌，自然呆。
Fans: innately child-like, naturally naive
主持人赵宁：是吗？比较标志性的卖萌的表情是？
Host: really? what’s your signature child-like expression?
歌迷：就这样的。
Fans: just like that
LU HAN：我也不知道怎么样。
Luhan: I really don’t like how it’s like
主持人赵宁：那谁最撒娇呢？
Host: who likes to cajole like a child?
(everybody points to Tao)
怎么就不是LU HAN了呢？
how is it not Luhan now?
TAO，你是怎么撒娇的？
Tao, how do you cajole like a child?
TAO：我吗？
Tao: me?
主持人赵宁：比如你想让LU HAN或者KRIS陪你去上街或者看电影，他们不太愿意，你会怎么撒娇求他们？
Host: for example, if you want Luhan or Kris to accompany to window-shop or to watch movies, they don’t really feel like going, how do you beg?
TAO：我说队长，你陪我去吧，我求你了。
Tao: i’ll say: Leader, come with me, please I beg you
主持人赵宁：他真的会生活中这样吗？
Host: does he really do that in real life?
KRIS：有时候会。
Kris: sometimes he does
主持人赵宁：但有效果吗，起什么效果了吗？
Host: but is it effective? how so?
KRIS：有啊，对我挺有效的，因为没办法，小弟弟，陪他一起去。
Kris: yea, it’s pretty effective on me. because I have no other choice, he’s a little brother, I had to accompany him
主持人赵宁：但是LAY摇头，你不同意。
Host: but Lay’s shaking his head, you don’t agree?
LAY：有时候有效果，有时候没效果。
Lay: sometimes it’s effective, sometimes it’s not
主持人赵宁：什么时候没效果呢？
Host: when is it not?
LAY：撒娇，撒的不好的情况。
Lay: cajoling, when he doesn’t do it well
主持人赵宁：他还有撒娇不好的情况。
Host: he even has moments when he doesn’t cajole well?
LAY：我觉得他做那个的时候Buling Buling的时候最好看。
Lay: I think when he’s the cutest when he does the buing buing thing
主持人赵宁：来做一下。
Host: come do it
（TAO做表情。）
(Tao does buing buing)
主持人赵宁：他会什么时候会做这样的？
Host: when does he do that?
LAY：很想去的时候。
Lay: when he really wants to go
主持人赵宁：谁最搞怪。
Host: who pranks the most?
XIU MIN。
(Xiumin)
他有点不相信，为什么大家都指向你？
He doesn’t believe it, why does everybody point to you?
XIU MIN：我也不知道为什么。
Xiumin: I don’t k now why either
主持人赵宁：LU HAN，为什么，是你第一个指向他的。？
Host: Luhan, why? you are the first one to point at him
LU HAN：可能私底下关系比较好，可能有时候不知道他有些举动，很可爱，能逗大家笑。
Luhan: maybe it’s because we have pretty close friendship, sometimes he doesn’t know that he has some gestures, they are really cute, can make everyone laugh
主持人赵宁：你的招牌举动是什么？XIU MIN。
Host: what are your signature gestures? Xiumin
LAY，是什么？
Lay, what are they?
LAY：对，就是挺可爱的晃头，晃头。
Lay: Yes, it’s the cute head-shaking move
主持人赵宁：是吗，是什么样子？
Host: really? what’s that like?
（XIU MIN表演动作）
(Xiumin does the head-shaking move)
主持人赵宁：那在我们的团队当中，我想问是谁最招女孩的喜欢呢？
Host: in the group, who are the ones that are most popular with girls?
指向身边的两位，KRIS和LU HAN哦。
(everybody points to Kris and Luhan)
他们入选的理由是什么，LAY，怎么样能感受到他们比较招女孩喜欢，是不是有经常收到一些礼物或者是表白之类的？
Why are they picked? Lay, how do you know they are popular with girls? Do they receive a lot of gifts or confessions from girls?
LAY：嗯，对。
Lay: yes
主持人赵宁：他们俩一定要分个胜负呢？
Host: If you had to pick the MOST popular?
LAY：你们怎么觉得？
Lay: what do you guys think?
主持人赵宁：TAO，怎么觉得？
Host: Tao, what do you think?
XIU MIN：他们两个是一样的，很难区分。
Xiumin: they are the same, it’s hard to differentiate
主持人赵宁：TAO，也是这么觉得？
Host: Tao, you agree?
TAO：我是觉得不同的场景，不同的人吧。
Tao: I think in different situations, different people
主持人赵宁：你给我们说一下，什么场景？
Host: what are the situations?
TAO：因为队长很成熟，很男人的感觉，所以喜欢他的女生大部分都是年龄比较大的。
Tao: because leader looks very mature, very manly. so girls who like him are mostly older girls
主持人赵宁：不对，这没有逻辑。
Host: no, this does’t make sense
TAO：比较成熟。
Tao: pretty mature
主持人赵宁：这个逻辑很怪。
Host: this is weird logic
TAO：喜欢LU HAN的，像一些学生，都会比较喜欢他。
Tao: those who like Luhan are students, they like him a lot
KRIS：他的意思是说，因为我们俩外形其实还是比较不一样的，有点差异，每个人喜欢的都不一样嘛。
Kris: he means, because we look pretty different on the outside. different people like different types

Okay, before we said they live together, there must be many fun events that happen between you guys. Because I used to hear from another boy band’s member say that in their dorm, they even wear each other’s underwear’s, do crazy things like that happen with you guys? Like nobody’s sure which is which anymore, so you just take any to wear?

LU HAN：我们没有。

Luhan: we don’t

LAY：有换袜子。

Lay: we wear each other’s socks

KRIS：袜子，有。

Kris: socks, yes

主持人赵宁：那你们都很快比如说袜子脏了就会洗嘛，因为我知道有男生攒起来洗。

Host: then do you guy wash socks pretty often when it gets dirty? because I know there are guys who put it off till the end

KRIS：我们每天洗，因为我们每天练习量比较大，每天都出很多汗，所以每天都洗。

Kris: we wash them everybody, because we practice a lot, thus we sweat a lot, so needs to wash socks everyday

TAO：都是自己洗。

Tao: we wash them ourselves

主持人赵宁：有换过别人的袜子吗？

Host: did you ever change into other people’s socks

LAY：因为袜子比较多，都是白色的，只要拿过来就穿了，也不知道是谁的。

Lay: we have so many socks, they are all white, so we just take any and wear, we couldn’t differentiate anymore

主持人赵宁：那谁比较爱吃零食呢？

Host: who likes to eat a lot of junk snacks?

LU HAN：比较爱吃零食的其实是LAY，他特别爱吃领事。

Luhan: Lay actually likes to eat a lot of junk snacks, he really likes to eat them

主持人赵宁：你爱吃什么类型的？

Host: what do you like to eat?

LAY：甜的，咸的，只要好吃的都会吃。

Lay: sweet, salty, if it tastes good I’ll eat

主持人赵宁：但是你还是很瘦。刚才说TAO是团队里最小的成员，我听说韩国里面有一个说法，老幺要承担很多工作，比如洗碗筷，是这样吗，TAO？

Host: but you are still so skinny. we just said Tao is the maknae, I heard that in Korea, the maknae has a lot of responsibilities, such as washing dishes, is that right, Tao?

TAO：可能在韩国有些队是这样，但是我们都会管理好自己的东西，每次吃完饭都自己收拾了，有良好的习惯。

Tao: maybe it’s like this in some groups in Korea, but we all take care of our own things, so after eating we each clean up our own mess, we have very good habits.

主持人赵宁：平时哥哥们有对你照顾吗，有特别照顾到你吗？

Host: do your hyungs take care of you? do you receive special treatments?

TAO：有啊。

Tao: yup

主持人赵宁：比如说？

Host: for example?

TAO：队长，因为我刚来的时候语言也不通，什么也不懂，都是队长一直帮助我，给我讲很多道理，队长对我很好，其他队员也对我很好。

Tao: leader. Because when I first came here I don’t know Korean, so I didn’t understand anything, it’s always been leader who helped me, taught me many lessons, he treats me really well, the other members treat me very well too

Luhan: Actually I was a foreign exchange student in Korea before, I came to Korea in 08 to study korean. I never had the chance to network with people in the industry so I was pretty disappointed back then, but there was this one time when I went out with a friend to this shopping street (Mingdong), and I got discovered by SM

主持人赵宁：其他的五位成员也是这样进入SM公司的吗？KRIS，一般吗？

Host: did the other 5 members enter SM this way? Kris, the same?

KRIS：都不一样。本来我在加拿大温哥华读过书，所以我是在那边全球选拔进的SM，我是07年的时候。

Kris: all different. I was studying in Vancouver, Canada. I auditioned for SM global in 07 and made it.

主持人赵宁：LAY呢？

Host: how about Lay?

LAY：我是08年在武汉。

Lay: For me it was 08 in Wuhan

主持人赵宁：XIU MIN呢？

Host: Xiumin?

XIU MIN：我是在2008年SM有一个歌唱比赛，我获得了优胜奖，进到了SM公司。

Xiumin: in 2008 SM had a singing contest (Everysing), I won an excellence award so I entered SM this way

主持人赵宁：CHEN呢？

Host: Chen?

CHEN：我是2011年的时候参加了一个歌唱大赛获得了冠军，所以被SM公司选中。

Chen: I entered a singing contest in 2011 and won 1st place, so I was selected by SM

Host: welcome. There are many sina netizens waiting for this live broadcast, hopefully we’ll be able to use this platform to communicate with everybody today. We just saw the MAMA mv, I wonder if we can see the live version today. Kris, is this possible?

KRIS：可以。LAY、LU HAN、XIU MIN。

Kris: yes. Lay, Luhan, Xiumin

主持人赵宁：这是现场直播，大家可以理解我们的现场安排，我们的帅哥已经准备好了，就要给我们奉上了，我们的音乐是不是赶紧给出来。

主持人赵宁：太棒了，我们今天现场也来了很多我们的歌迷朋友，你们感觉怎么样？

Host: That was great, we have a lot of fans in the audience today as well, what do you guys think?

歌迷：帅。

Fans: handsome!

主持人赵宁：我看到她已经激动得流眼泪了。刚才我们EXO-M跟大家打招呼的时候有这样一个手势，跟我们跟大家见面的团体的手势，是不是？

Host: I see that this fan is so excited that she’s crying. We just saw EXO-M used a hand gesture when you greeted everyone, was that the hand gesture you guys use for the group?

Kris: it means great, it represents our hopes in the future to become influential in the music industry, to be a praise-worthy group, it also represents one, since we also have our korean counterparts in our group of 12.

主持人赵宁：刚才是我们所有团队的成员一起跟大家打招呼，我们六位都到齐了，是不是分别跟我们网友打个招呼，介绍一下好不好。KRIS，先来。

Host: before we had all the group members greet the audience, now that all 6 of you are here, can you say hi to our netizens, and introduce yourself. Kris, you first

TAO：大家好，我是EXO-M最小的成员TAO。

Tao: hi everyone, I’m EXO-M’s youngest member Tao

主持人赵宁：欢迎你，TAO。

Host: welcome, Tao

刚刚说《MAMA》的MV是根本见面的MV作品，是不是CHEN也跟大家介绍一下这首歌曲。

Host: we were just talking about how MAMA mv is your title MV, can Chen introduce this song to everyone

Kris: MAMA is a song with a very strong style and a powerful feeling. The makeup or the song style all give a feeling of power, at the same time mysteriousness, because of the woodwind and string instruments in the beginning, mysteriousness is conveyed. Also, we are a performance group, so we have an extravagant effect on the stage as well.

Host: MAMA mv won many fan’s hearts, everybody has been trying to interpret the meaning of the song online, i wonder which member can explain your interpretation of the MAMA song and the meanings that the MV is trying to convey?

Kris: EXO-M came from the word Exoplant. It represents planets outside of our planet system, means that we are an unknown star, so that’s what Exoplanet means. Our groups’s unique aspect is that there are two groups, one for korea and one for china, releasing the same album in different countries, at the same time, in different languages.

主持人赵宁：对，我看到每一个人都会有一个徽章，代表了你们在外太空的一个标志，那个是你们自己选的吗？

Host: yes, I saw that everybody has a brooch, representing your symbol in Exoplant, did you guys choose it for yourselves?

KRIS：不是我们自己选的。

Kris: we didn’t pick it ourselves

主持人赵宁：是符合你们个性，对不对？

Host: but it most matches your personalities, right?

KRIS：可以这么说吧，可以每个人介绍一下自己的徽章。

Kris: i guess you can say that, we can introduce our own symbols

主持人赵宁：我们这次从最小的TAO开始。

Host: let’s start with maknae Tao

TAO：我的那个是时间暂停，就是让时间停止。

Tao: mine is a time-stopper, it stops time

主持人赵宁：时间停止，你有这个魔力、这个能力？

Host: time-stopping, you have this magical power?

TAO：对，这是我的能力，让时间、整个空间都停下来。

Tao: yes, it’s my ability, to pause all time and space

主持人赵宁：那CHEN呢？

Host: how about Chen?

CHEN：我的那个是象征着雷电，但是不是挂在衣服上面的，是戴在手上的一个戒指。

Chen: mine represents lightening, but it’s not a brooch that hangs on my shirt, it’s a ring I wear on my hand

主持人赵宁：XIU MIN，你的呢？

Host: how about you, Xiumin?

XIU MIN：不好意思，因为我的中文还不是很好，我今天就用韩文跟大家说，以后我会努力的学习中文，争取以后可以完全用中文跟大家交流。

Xiumin: I apologize, my Chinese still isn’t very good, I’ll speak to everyone in Korean today, but I’ll continue to study Chinese, to try to communicate with everyone fluently in Chinese next time.

主持人赵宁：谢谢，给你一些鼓励。

Host: thanks, we’ll give you encouragement

XIU MIN：我戴了一个有雪花图案的东西，象征的意思是可以熔化掉一切。

Xiumin: I wear something that looks like a snowflake, it means that it can melt everything (I think the korean translator made a mistake here, he probable meant that it can freeze not melt)
